“Union of the Our Ukraine and the Party of Regions in the future parliament is impossible. We can’t unite what can’t be united. I would call such a coalition a mythical one”, Kseniya Lyapina, MP of the fifth convocation, member of the Presidium of the Our Ukraine said, according to Our Ukraine’s web site.

According to her, party ideologies of the Our Ukraine and the Party of Regions don’t coincide.

“The Party of Regions members are representatives of big business and state capitalism. Business interests are a priority for them”, she emphasized.

“At that the Our Ukraine party has always been in favor of democratic values”, Ms Lyapina noted. The MP added that she was aware of the opinion of her party colleagues and that they were against uniting with the Party of Regions.
